Lemongrass adds bold texture and fresh citrus fragrance to the garden with its lush, bright green blades and upright tropical form. This fast-growing edible favorite brings vibrant green color, movement, and fresh-from-the-garden flavor to sunny patios, herb beds, and landscape borders.

The most commonly used edible portion of lemongrass is the tender lower stalk and base, valued for its bright, citrusy flavor in cooking and tea.
